Non-resident return filing requirement - div and int reported for non-resident

Is the dollar amount required to file (7500 for married filing jointly) refer to federal gross income, or NJ gross income?  Do I have to file a non-resident NJ state return because dividends and interest are reported to NJ (by the investment firm)? I am not a resident and owe no tax and had no NJ tax withheld. Firm will not issue a corrected return.   Thanks.

Below is a link for New Jersey filing requirements for non-residents. 

The income is MFJ 20,000 Federal Gross Income (not just NJ income)

Thank. But do you know if I need to file if income is $20,000 or more?

No, if your only income (incorrectly reported as New Jersey income) is the interest and dividends you received when you were not a resident of New Jersey, you do not file a New Jersey nonresident return.
